Digitising urban greenery with Green UrbanSights
Urban greenery plays a critical role in creating sustainable and liveable cities. Green UrbanSights leverages advanced technologies such as LiDAR, satellite imagery, and AI to digitise, monitor, and manage urban green infrastructure. This use case at DOLL Living Lab showcases how actionable data insights can enhance tree management, improve city planning, and contribute to healthier urban ecosystems.
What is the challenge?
Cities face difficulties in monitoring and maintaining their green infrastructure due to a lack of consistent data and tools. Challenges include:
- Limited resources for tree inventories and maintenance.
- The absence of real-time, standardised data to assess the health of urban greenery.
- Inefficient integration of green infrastructure insights into city planning.
Which kind of results do the companies expect?
The project aims to demonstrate how advanced data technologies can support smarter urban greenery management. Key expected results include:
- A comprehensive digital inventory of trees using LiDAR and satellite imagery.
- Continuous health monitoring of vegetation along critical urban infrastructure.
- Enhanced visualisation tools to deliver actionable insights through dashboards and reports.
What value does it aim to achieve?
This initiative seeks to redefine urban green space management by:
- Providing cities with precise, real-time data to prioritise maintenance efforts.
- Supporting informed decision-making for sustainable urban development.
- Promoting the integration of green infrastructure insights into broader city strategies, benefiting both biodiversity and urban residents.
